Mos Def Lyrics

Say my name say my name because you know the deal

Only rapper spitting that fire and yet I'm colder still

Mixing up the rhythm embodied by what I'm holding here

Every other word that I utters considered overkill

I'm just holding court in the place that they says a long shot

Started off with spitting at tables over a beatbox

Giving you the hustle and flow that them niggas fiend about

Now you want to give me a reason the let then bomb drop

I been on my grizzly so long that they think I'm G now

Looking at them niggas they really got to be senile

Y'all the mother fuckers that honestly need the eval

Because I'm just being me with a real sticker for decal

I'm only breaking bad because I think that shit is awesome

Turn the other cheek is where they mother fucking lost me

Into retaliation even though it may cost me

Because that will turn me into the nigga they never cross son

Yeah

You know I stick to my guns

I keep a hollow in the chamber for the ignorant ones

I got a hammer that is heavy so it stays in the trunk

And that is only coming out for the belligerent ones

I never meant to be so rude but it just happened like that

Never meant to go so hard but I'm just rapping like that

Got a lady that is willing so the madam on deck

Never meant to be a player I just got it like that

Damn

Am I really that good

I'm thinking everything is happening the way that it should

I figured life out like a puzzle like a thinking man would

And this was all around the time that I was up to no good

See I was late night Loften

Hoods own orphan

But cool with the moves I could groove quite often

Looking like a player that could do not awful

With raps that attack and leave fools in coffins

This is retro waves

I got the feeling of a rapper in his retro days

I wasn't privy to the block but yet I'm still ok

Think I'm a sucker in your eyes and yet I still get paid

There's not a curve that you could throw that would causing me to trip up

Nothing you could do that would be causing me to slip up

Everything you say I see as just a minor hiccup

And that's the reason I'm seeing the money steady pick up

Grinding nigga

You should probably keep in mind my nigga

The reason you lacking and falling behind

Every mountain that I see I know I'll conquer in time

So I ain't scared of not a thing that could be coming around

So if you think that you can take me then you better come on

Because I been really doing work and I been murdering songs

I'm doing magic in this bitch like I was Merlin at home

Lets get it on

Just take notice that this Atoms the Bomb
